-Enralsa Items,

We do not remember of ever having
seen corn and cotton grow off more rapid.
" and beautifully than they have this
Nav, and the weather continues favorable
and the farmer continues to plow and
hoe. Seed.time is about over, harvest Is
vet four months off, and between these
two seasons there is much to do. Here Is
another thing we feel that is due to the
credit of our farmers, which is this, we
have never seen them 60 and continue to
90 at work to make crop with such
vim and determination. It is not only in
our own community but it is the case in
all the neighborhoods in which we go and
from which we hear. Truly we do have
an industrious people. We heard an old
man say once that industry and sobriety
would make any man rich. OF course
that don't follow every time, but it is
splendid rule to go by. Economy must
come in between the two.
It Is the general opinion that the wheat
crop will be good, at least good Judges
say that they can see no reason Why 1t
should not, as everything has been favor
able to the crop. There is no disease
whatever as we haYe heard of on the
crop. It is true that it is low and the
heads are short, but they are being well
filled. 1t is pleasant to hope for good
crop, we need it so badly.
Herbert, three year old son of Mr.
and Mrs. r. T.. and Fannie Cheshire,
died in the afternoon of last Friday. He
was fine, healthy and we'll grown boy.
His remains were laid to rest on Sunday
in the grave yard at Shady Grove Church.
His Father and mother were so sick as to
both be unable to attend the funeral.
Gods purposes must be fulfilled though
they weight heavily upon us.
A bee robbing was always an Interesting
occasion to your correspondent. We were
trained to it when boy. A bee robber
must not be afraid of being caught by q
bee. We, together with several other
friends, were invited on last Monday
evening to an occasion of this kind at Mr..
81. M. Geers. He is very successful in
this culture. Mr.. Geer is worthy young
man, splendid and highly respected far
mer. We robbed eight hives, all patent
gums, and from the eight we got 168
pounds of we'll filled and completely
sealed comb. We have been accustomed
to this kind of work all through life, but
those of Mr.. Geer's were the richest we
ever saw. Every rack was full, and some
of them weighed five and six pounds.
We used to be opposed TO the patent
gums, but we are about ready to give up
the old ones.
Our free school exhibition and pic mic
at Carpenter and Geer's on last Friday
was complete success. 1t furnished food
for the mind, and there was food in abund-
ance for the body.

AS you, Mr.. Editor, seem to be receiv.
ing visitors from all portions Of the Coun-

The weather is now quite warm. Every
body is as busy as can be, and the merry
ring of the hoes and the lively voice of
the darkey, as he calls out s'gee' and

Measles are abating in this section.
We heard it cautiously remarked not
long since that if one of our Baptist min
listers did not mind how he preached pro.
hibition, he would get thrown out of his
Church, but as all of his hearers are not
antics, we do not think there is any prob
ability of such catastrophe. All Chris
tians arc of one mind, therefore they are
all prohibitionists; hence, God being with
them, there is not much ground left for
those who strive against a good cause.
Can any of the antics give the true mean
ing of the word anti-prohdhion Anti, as
we all know, means against. Beginning
from the first and tracing whiskey from
its mildest to its worst form, we find that
the man who uses it to an excess is an
offender in the sight of God. Therefore,
the anti -prohibitionists well deserve their
name, for they have voluntarily taken a
position in opposition to the best interests
of morality. TWIads.

The building of the S. V. R. r. has
made it necessary to make many changes
along its line, especially near the different
stations.
The roads will be changed In many
places, and old names will be dropped
and new ones given in many instances,
and as these changes take place it is neces-
sary to adapt ourselves to them, hence we
write from the above named place, it be-
ing the name of the P. O. established at
Starr, ten miles south of Anderson. II a
multiplicity of names is any advantage to
a new town in building up, this place
certainly has that advantage, and hope
our little town will not break down under
the load.
Refreshing showers have visited this
section recently, and everything is grow
ing iuxuriantly. Crops of all kinds are
looking we'll and our farmers hopeful. It
is seldom that we see the crops as well
advanced and in as good condition as at
the present time. Already we see the ad.
yanced pickets of Gen. Green's army, and
our farmers will have to be vigilant and
make every lick tell for the next two
months.
Our section is about free from measles
at last, but we hear Of considerable sick
ness from dysentery.
Little Mamie, the only child of Mr.. and
Mrs. T. D. Hall, died last Sunday morn
inc and was buried the following day at
this place. She was the idol of her
parents, and her death has left void
which will always be felt in their hearts.
The many friends of the bereaved parents
tender them their heartfelt sympathy in
this their hour of distress.
Our young friend, Mr.. T. w. Hall, met
with serious accident last Saturday morn
ing. 1t seems he was going out to plow,
and his horse, becoming frightened at
some plows he was carrying threw him,
and one of his feet becoming entangled in
the chains, he was dragged some hundred
yards over a very rocky road. He re-
ceiyed several severe wounds from the
rock, and had two or three ribs broken
by the horse kicking him as he ran. His
wounds were dressed by DR.. Speer, Of
Lowndesville, and it is hoped he will be
up and about soon.

Several of the road overseers are work.
ing their respective sections OF road
whenever 1t is too wet to work in the

necessity exists for our commissioners to
take them from their fields at this season
of wear, to work on the roads. Our peo.
ple have been led to see the necessity for
better roads, and are willing to put in the
full time, but they think they can do it oil

Fork Itelna.

This section was visited on last Saturday
by several light showers, which did agOod
part towards advancing the growing veg
citation, but it was not as much as there
has been in other sections, although we
should be very proud that we can have
nice, gentle showers, while our neighbor-
ing sections are almost destroyed by
heavy rains and tremendous hail storms.
We have not had any rains this season
that were heavy enough to wash the land
any.
The farmers have been very busy for
the last week chopping cotton, and most
of any, trying to destroy the unusual
amount of grass that put in its appearance
before the cotton was up, therefore it was
in many places very firm before it was
turned up to the sun for it to do its part,
but with another fine week and good
work think they can rejoice over 8
great battle won with their own hands.
The cotton where it has been worked and
ploWed looks better than is usual for its
age and time of year.
There is finer crop of corn now than
/ have seen for several years. Its condi-
ton is very good. In many places it has
had its second plowing and is planted
with peas between the hills.
The oat crop is doing fine, and if the
gentle showers continue it will be far
ahead of our expectations.
Wheat is now beginning to turn and
will soon need the harvester with his
strong arm to cradle it away to its place

An Interesting Occasion.

The schools Of Broadway Township
had most enjoyable exhibition aud pic
mic at Carpenter & Geer's Mill, five miles
east Of the city, last Saturday, which,
notwithstanding the busy season with our
country friends, was largely attended.
In company with our young friend, Dr.
8. G. Bruce, who was kind enough to give
us seat in his buggy, we left the city
about II O'clock, and when We arrived on
the grounds the exercises for the day had
already commenced. A stand had been
erected and large number Of seats ar
ranged in the grove below the mill, and
every body seemed to be deeply interested
in the exercises. The stand was tasteful
ly decorated, aud on one end of it stood
an organ, which was used in the rendition

The exercises were interesting through.
out, and were highly enjoyed by the audi
ence. Every part of the programme was
excellently rendered, and tho pupils
showed that they had been in the hands
of competent and pains-taking teachers,
who are doing noble work in their re-
spective communities.
| at the conclusion of the above pro.
gramme, Col. L. E. Campbell, in few ap-
propriate remarks, introduced Hon. B. F.
Crayton, Col. ]. G. Clinkscales and Hon.
e. B. Murray, in the order named, each of
whom made most excellent speech on
the subject of education. Their speeches
were listened to very attentiyely by the
audience.
The people Of Broadway are thoroughly
aroused on the subject of education, and
they have three most efficient teachers in
the persons OF Misses Campbell, Ander.
son and Emerson.
at the conclusion of the speaking, din.
ner was next in order, and the crowd di.
vided into groups, each group, with their
guests, gathering around large, well-flled
baskets. AS usual we gotinto good hands
and Jared sumptuously, despite the fact
that we sat between pretty young lady
and. young Methodist preacher. We
thought we were a good hand around a
dinner basket, but the latter turned ms
down, especially on fried chicken and
lemon custards.
The afternoon was spent very pleasant
ly in various ways, and every one seemed
to enjoy themselves very much. If any
one failed 70 enjoy the day it was their
own fault.

Will some one give the cause Of the bad
condition of the health of our people this
spring? The old citizens of this commu-
nifty say there has not been so much sick
ness in this section since the year 1857.
Quite number Of diseases are prevalent.
Measles is now much less common, but
dysentery, of quite severe type, is close
in the wake of the first mentioned disease,
and makes quite an ugly complication.
These diseases, together with whooping
cough, that old shadow of measles, have
dealt roughly with both old and young.
Typhoid fever has now made its appear
ance among us. Truly, there must be
some peculiar condition Of the system
that makes the people unusually suscepti.
BILE to disease.
DR.. M. L. Sharpe has been with DR..
DuckWorth two days assisting him in the
treatment of some serious cases, particu.
larly those of Messrs. Wilson Mullikin
and VIM. Wilson, jr. Mr.. Mullikin's was
a case demanding immediate relief, which
could not be given short of q critical as
clans performed quite successfully. Mr..
Wilson is quite low with typhoid fever.
We are always glad to see Dr.. Sharpe in
our midst. In past years he practiced
through this section, and won the conf
dence and admiration of the people.
Hope the Doctor will come again.
DR.. puckworth's services are constantly
in demand. He is quite popular among
his friends, and deservedly so, because he
is generous and high-toned gentleman.
His ear is ever open to the cry of suffering
in any form.
So much sickness has thrown the far
lners back considerably.
Wheat and oats are continuing to look
up.
